US national anthem proclaims that US is the land of the free.
However US is losing its liberty.
Treasurey money is wasted to make the country worse.

Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Abraham Lincoln: "If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time or die by suicide."
Patrick Henry: "Give me liberty, or give me death!"
